Following the announcement today by the Court of Arbitration for Sport to uphold the decision made by UEFA to disqualify Feyenoord from the UEFA Cup, the Club can confirm that it has received a bye through to the Round of 16.We will now play either Braga or Parma with the away leg taking place on 8 March. An announcement with regards to ticketing for the away leg will be issued when the Club has details of our opponents.

Supporters who have already purchased Feyenoord tickets should retain these as they will remain valid for the home leg of our last 16 match (14/15 March).

Supporters who are in the Club's Cup Guarantee scheme will, therefore, find their ticket valid for the next match in this competition. Any supporter, not on the Club's Cup Guarantee Scheme, who is holding a Feyenoord ticket and who would be unable to make the last 16 match, will be able to claim a refund.

For the remaining tickets for the Round of 16, there will be an initial priority sale period for season ticket holders that have not bought tickets for the Feyenoord game. Any remaining tickets will go on sale at a later date to be advised.

The decision to re-use Feyenoord tickets for the last 16 match has been taken due to the fact there will be too little time to process refunds and to re-allocate seats for the entire Stadium.

Our Premiership fixture away to Everton can now be confirmed for Wednesday February 21 (8pm) at Goodison Park.
